A brilliant way to brighten each day. In this playful,innovative collection,Brian Bilston writes a poem to accompany every day of the year.Each poem is inspired by a significant - often curious - event associated with that day: from Open an Umbrella Indoors Day to the day on which New York banned public flirting; from the launch of the Rubik's Cube to the first appearance of the phrase,'the best thing since sliced bread'.Perfect for reading aloud and sharing with friends,Days Like These: An alternative guide to the year in 366 poems will take the blues out of Monday,flatten the Wednesday hump,and amplify that Friday feeling.
